Bite the child with spookshow teeth
Mourn the child with paradox grief
Kiss the child with poison lips
Crush the child in your grip
Adore the child with raging hate
Tempt the child with surreal fate
Guide the child to the light
Make the child win that fight
Mold the child to your glove
Kill the child with your love

why all the morbid thoughts??? This poem kinda depressed me. I would be hurt If I knew someone felt like this toward their child. Please let me know if I'm not getting the point of this poem.

What I mean by the poem is that parents often come on too strong, expecting their child to be their mirror.....and even though they are pushing the child out of love....it destroys the child inside....
hence "Kill the child with your love"

i can relate...

------------------
"If to rectify your demeanor,
You must imitate another,
Your philosiphy on morality
Is a burden on your mentality,
Your actions based on popularity,
Will never fulfill you internally,
Cuz the world was not blessed with equality,
But rather with fake geniality.
